Don’t forget: it’s still National Character Counts Week!

In case you’ve forgotten, the President has declared this week, the week of October 15 through 21, 2017, National Character Counts Week.

In the declaration, it says:

“Character can be hard to define, but we see it in every day acts — raising and providing for a family with loving devotion…

…working hard to make the most of an education…

…and giving back to devastated communities.

Character is forged around kitchen tables…

…built in civic organizations…

…and developed in houses of worship.”

Happy National Character Counts Week, everybody!
